FIRE IN BANGKOK

This is a picture I took about 30 minutes ago (2.30pm, Sunday) of a house fire in the Wat Bang Sa Kae Nai community of Thaphra in Bangkok. I took it from the end of the building I live in.
In my past life as a press photographer in the UK I took quite a few fire pictures and they key, as far as I am concerned, is to add a human element if possible. In this case I was fortunate to have the residents closer to the fire on their balcony to add some context to the picture.
I sincerely hope no one was injured, and it was amazing how quickly the Thai fire service attended en mass.
